Wallet Gebühren in Australien?
Wir fahren diesen Sommer nach Australien, und dort muss man (meines wissens nach) 2,50€ Gebühren zahlen, wenn man mit der Kreditkarte bezahlt.
Man sagte uns jetzt aber, dass viele dort mit dem Handy (zb. der Wallet App auf Apple) zahlen, und ich frage mich, ob das dann Gebührenfrei wäre für uns?
Apple Pay only simplifies payment processing at the cash register. However, the money still goes off the credit card, so the foreign fees are also due.
Find out the exact costs of your credit card Exhibitor or Bank. Maybe there are other payment options that don’t cost anything.
I think the question was directly related to Australia, where time and again hits are calculated from the store when you shop there with card.
My experience: fixed 2.50 AUD fees I haven’t seen anywhere. In the supermarket, at McDonald’s and many other shops you can pay without extra charge with card. Many smaller shops or hotels, however, want to have a fee in case of card payment.
This fee is limited to the most important payment cards and is between 0.5 and 1% of the total. But as I said, this does not make all shops, but quite a certain number of shops. And there’s no difference between paying by Apple Pay.
In doubt, cash helps to pay if it is offered.
